June 21, 200916 yr only because of what the mods said, it honestly doesn't bother me :P Ugh!! Mods!!!!! Let us have the thread :( As far as I can remember, the artist confirmation thread has been opened straight away every month since the thread was invented, I don't see why they want it to be different this time.

Why should the mods have such a big say in what happens in this game? Last time I checked this was a Community game where everyone had a say. :angry:

I don't get it either. Apparently it's not to "overkill" the contest but I think that happened a long time ago.

Last time I checked this was a Community game where everyone had a say. :angry: The mods are the ones who look after the forum, so we should respect their decision. I do. Not everyone has an idea who they are sending for the next contest, so will be nice to find some time to look!

June 21, 200916 yr The mods are the ones who look after the forum, so we should respect their decision. I do. Not everyone has an idea who they are sending for the next contest, so will be nice to find some time to look! So surely we should have a choice? If people want to spend some time looking around for what to send then they're more than entitled to do that even with the thread, but some people do want to put some ideas down. I certainly didn't wait for "clearance" when I was hosting the contest (because, like somebody else said, the mods are in charge of the forum, surely that doesn't mean the contest itself), and I don't think that caused any practical nightmares for the mods...
June 21, 200916 yr That's why it's left open for a week? But by the time I have have looked, most artists are gone. It will be nice to have a chance to take a BJSC breath!
June 21, 200916 yr Well, cant we have a poll.. like.. they who want 1 week with reservation, 1 with confirmation, 1 sami final week and 1 final week or they who want 1 week with reservation/confirming, 1 week semi final, 1 final week or they who want one week with NOTHING, 1 week with reservation/confirming and 1 week semi final and 1 week final..?? or more options?
June 21, 200916 yr But by the time I have have looked, most artists are gone. It will be nice to have a chance to take a BJSC breath! This is also true. I'm not 100% bothered but if anyone nicks the artist that I want to send- there will be HELL to pay.
June 21, 200916 yr By the way, I'm sure it's clear but just in case it isn't, none of my gripes are directed at Rich, who never fails to be a good host and whose hands I understand are very much tied.
June 21, 200916 yr I don't get what difference it makes, tbh? Nothing wrong with being keen, but what is wrong with waiting a week? :mellow:
June 21, 200916 yr I think you should just post it, the mods shouldn't be the ones to decide how each contest is run. Don't get me wrong I respect the mods decision on forum related things but the contest is separate and should be treated as such, nowhere does it say that the mods are the mods of the contest, the forums for the contest yes but not the actual contest. I just think the host should be the one to decide when things start, obviously guided by what others say but he/she should be the one to ultimately make the decision
June 21, 200916 yr By the way, I'm sure it's clear but just in case it isn't, none of my gripes are directed at Rich, who never fails to be a good host and whose hands I understand are very much tied. don't worry I know they're not directed at me :P as a past BJSC host yourself, I'm sure you understand that you can't please everyone if I open it now I get criticised by the mods and others for not leaving it a few days when they had specifically instructed 'the winner' to do so in the live final thread if I leave it for a few days, the people eager to get on with reserving get annoyed so like I say, until I get a green light from one of the mods, I'll play by the book, it's entirely in their hands, as soon as they ok it (and I'm online) I'll open the thread...also, can one of the mods when they get here please put up a vote regarding this matter so that we don't have this sort of confusion in the future!?!
June 21, 200916 yr I don't get what difference it makes, tbh? Nothing wrong with being keen, but what is wrong with waiting a week? :mellow: Well if there were a thread then both of those parties would be facilitated...
